I think the inverted busts are being replaced by screens (probably better for the guest experience if people are stopped there for more than 30 seconds), but I think the candles returning would be a good theming upgrade over the singular blue light and however many smaller white lights. One major shift we could see is less thematic signs of wear and tear and more "fresh" signs of the theater reopening. I'd love to see some of the grandeur of the original ride brought back. The lobby (loading station) looked so nice in photos. Maybe we'll see some really good easter eggs in the queue and station instead of just during the ride itself.
Do you think we'll see any references to the theater's "actual" name, or will they just refer to it as the Phantom Theater every time? I think early concept art had it named as the Palace Theater. It'd be a small but fun detail.
I like the general organization a lot better than the previous generation site, it's easier to find things without digging, but I don't care for the use of the Legacy Six Flags fonts. In my opinion, the Cedar Fair style fonts that are being used on the corporate site are clearer and easier to read.
I wonder if the candles will return in the hallway que, I know when PT turned into Scooby-Doo/Boo Blasters; they kept the original Candles exiting the ride. Fingers crossed they are still there. 🤞
If they are going to add hotel space, they really need to add on to the waterpark as well. Clearly, they have the space for it.
The waterpark is packed as is on weekends and busiest days. It’s why we try to go on Sundays or early in the week when days and holidays allow.
